Yesterday was the press event for the opening of „Harry Potter: The Exhibition“ in Cologne / Germany.
I (Estrella89San) got an invitation for the preview of this exhibition and had the chance to interview Matthew Lewis aka Neville Longbottom.

Below you can read our and Megan’s (from Matthew-Lewis.com) questions for him  :

1. What do you think keeps bringing fans back to Potter and these experiences after all this time? What is your favorite part about attending events?
2. Do you have plans to crack the US market like some of your Potter costars? Or are there upcoming projects you can tell us about?
3. You’ve been traveling a lot for work lately, where is one place you really want to visit on your time off?
4. Who would you have wanted to play Neville’s Grandmother in the series?
5. Having been in a band, would you ever like to play a guitarist in a film? Perhaps a biopic? Or maybe record a song with the other Potter actors who are musically inclined?
6. What one current actor would you love to work with?
7. Have you heard of the verb “longbottomed” which refers to kids who start out awkward-looking and then get hot when they are older?

BTW, the exhibition is fantastic and for all fans, who can’t visit the Warner Bros. Studio Tour in London or The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, is this a great chance to see many stuff of Harry Potter.

Boys that are worse than Malfoy? Tom Felton narrates “Too Tough To Teach”

Are these kids “Too Tough To Teach?” Channel 5′s new documentary narrated by Earache’s Tom Felton has exclusive access to a school for boys with severe behavioural problems.

When boys arrive at Ian Mikardo School, they are aggressive, disaffected and at risk of ending up in custody. The school is the very end of the line for the toughest kids in East London – the boys that end up here have been permanently expelled from mainstream school with no possibility of returning.

Now, for the first time ever, this extraordinary institution will open its doors with a chance to look beyond the boys’ hard exteriors to reveal their lives, their families and the dedicated teachers who refuse to give up on them.

In a school where every child has special educational needs, we will see the challenges that the teachers have to face daily and the unusual lessons that are taught to the boys.

In this intimate portrayal of a school unlike any other, “Too Tough To Teach?” will follow the stories of a number of boys and their daily battle to release their potential.

This two part documentary starts at 9pm on Channel 5 on Monday 29th and concludes the following week.
